when America was Beginning to pay tribute to his Pre Inde Rachmaninoff visited tho United States for the first time Ills present visit began at November In those nine years tb American people have learned to appreciate pod music he aald They have come to a better understanding of the Russian compositions And when I say Russian composers are the fore most In the world I am not apeaklng of my own qualities Rusala Rachmaninoff says has or had before Bolshevism reigned a pedes of muaio very much like American regtlme It Is tho music of the gypsies Of American music he said I like the negro melodies best They might be adapted to classical music It Is all a matter ot tho composer There are ho bad melodies there are only bad composers Rachanlnoff doesnt know what la going to bocoiieof

subject with Rachmaninoff i ThT more he thinks of them he rays the more firm II his determination not to return to Russia until they have left the land or every Bolshevik has fulfilled his self
